The theorem states that a squared + b squared = c squared. The side labeled C is the side across from the right angle, meaning the side that we call C does not touch the two lines that make the right angle. Generally the longer of the two other sides is labeled B but since it doesn't matter which is labeled A and B you can label them however you want. And it doesn't matter because you are squaring both of the numbers and then adding them together to find the length of side C.

Why is the formula for the Pythagorean theorem a bc?
a squared + b squared=c squared
Why is the Pythagorean theorem incorrect?
With A=5 B=2 C=7, you don't have a right-angled triangle (90° angle), that's why you get a wrong answer. The Pythagorean theorem isn't wrong, YOU are wrong!
What is the answer to A squared plus B squared equals 25?
2.5 + 3.4 Pythagorean Theorem?
A2 plus b2 equals c2 is pythagoreans theorem?
A squared plus B squared equals C squared, where C is the hypotenuse of a right triangle and A and B are the other two sides is true and is one way of expressing the Pythagorean Theorem.
Describe what pythagorean theorem is?
The pythagorean theorem is a^2+b^2=c^2 here is a diagram |\ | \ | \ a | \ c | \ | \ |_____\ b say "a" is 4 "b"is 3 and "c" is 5 4 squared is 16 3 squared is 9 and 5 squared is 25 so 16+9=25 makes sense?
In the pythagorean theorem is b twice of a?
In the Pythagorean Theorem b is not twice a. The formula is [ a squared + b squared = c squared].
What is the difference between the pythagorean theorem and the converse of the pythagorean theorem?
The Pythagorean Theorem states that in a right triangle with legs a and b and hypotenuse c, a2 + b2 = c2. The converse of the Pythagorean theorem states that, if in a triangle with sides a, b, c, a2 + b2 = c2 then the triangle is right and the angle opposite side c is a right angle.
Who developed the theory a plus b equals c?
A Mathematician named Pythagorean. That is why it is called Pythagorean's theorem. For every right triangle, this theorem will be true.
Is equation for the Pythagorean theorem is a b c?
it is asquared +b squared = c squared
What did Pythagoras contribute to trigonometry?
One major contribution was that of the Pythagorean Theorem. a^2 + b^2 = c^2
What if the pythagorean theorem gives you a triangle that is not right?
The pythagorean theorem is only used for a right triangle. Formula: a^2+b^2=c^2 the "a" and "b" represent the legs of the triangle and the "c" represents the hypotenuse.
Why is the formula for the Pythagorean theorem a bc?
a squared + b squared=c squared
Why is the Pythagorean theorem incorrect?
With A=5 B=2 C=7, you don't have a right-angled triangle (90° angle), that's why you get a wrong answer. The Pythagorean theorem isn't wrong, YOU are wrong!
How did they usse the Pythagorean Theorem?
I'm not sure who you mean by "they"; but it's a simple theorem: A^2 + B^2 = C^2
How do you find the perimeter of a triangle using the pythagorean theorem?
The pythagorean theorem is a+b=c. So, a+b equals two of the three sides. Using your knowledge of what those two sides are will help you with figuring out the third side, but technically, the pythagorean theorem is used only for right triangles. a and b are the two straight sides and c is the diagonal side. your welcome. 8th grader
What is the equation used to describe the Pythagorean Theorem?
a^2+b^2=c^2
How do you find A in a triangle while using pythagreon Theorem?
You do the Pythagorean Theorem backwards, C squared- B squared = A squared, you should probably try A squared in the formula going forward before you answer the question and turn it in. :)
